I worked for a company in the past―a distributed company. We had a policy that all developers should be able to recreate their development environment within an hour of putting a bullet through their current one. Good policy. Kept everything distributed, and lightweight :)
@jonathansampson that's sensible, I'll try to keep that in mind when looking at our projects. i think in scala, SBT does most of the heavy lifting when it comes to setting up.
